Kalanchoe beharensis

Kalanchoe beharensis, known as the elephant's ear kalanchoe, felt bush or feltbush, is a succulent shrub in the family Crassulaceae and the genus Kalanchoe. It is native to Madagascar, where it is called mongy, rongy and tavitavy. It is an evergreen shrub about one to two metres tall, with olive green, triangular and lance-shaped leaves arranged in opposite pairs, doubly crenate along the margins and covered toward the tip with brown woolly hairs. Small yellowish flowers open from spring to summer on branched clusters. It reproduces by seed and by plantlets, performs crassulacean acid metabolism in the dry season, and is grown as a houseplant; the cultivar Fang has gained the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit.
